Navy firing back at jet noise lawsuit COER claims Navy is not presenting ‘real’ sound data By JANIS REID Staff reporter
The Navy asked a federal judge to deny a citizen group’s demand that aircraft operations be halted at Outlying Field Coupeville. The Citizens of Ebey’s Reserve, or COER, sued the Navy in 2013 claiming that the noise associated with the EA-18G Growler pilot training is damaging the health of those living under the OLF flight path. In response, Navy attorneys said in recent court documents that the request for “injunctive relief” should be denied because COER’s “injuries … are not sufficient to rise to the level of irreparable harm” and that it would be detrimental to both Navy operations and national security. Capt. Mike Nortier, commanding officer for Whidbey Island Naval Air Station, is among a handful of Navy brass and experts who responded in written legal declarations in support of continued training at OLF. Performing touch-and-go operations at NAS Whidbey’s Ault Field instead of OLF produces a back up of other types of flight operations because the Field Carrier Landing Practice, or FCLPs, are a “closed pattern” that can’t be interrupted, Nortier said. In addition, moving the operations to the more dense Oak Harbor area would affect more people. “The population surrounding Ault Field is greater than that surrounding OLF Coupeville, which means noise impacts from aircraft operations at Ault Field impact a greater number of people than at Coupeville,” Nortier said. OLF Coupeville is crucial to pilot training because it provides “a realistic environment in which to practice FCLPs,” according to a declaration of Capt. Benjamin Hewlett, commander of NAS Whidbey’s Carrier Air Wing I. “Night carrier operations are the highest risk operations in aviation, but night combat operations are critical to mission success because of the diminished capability of the enemy,” Hewlett said. If pilots are not able to practice FCLPs in “an environment as ideal as OLF Coupeville” before going aboard a carrier it “will degrade SEE STORY, A5

Keaton Farris was just 25 years old when he died from dehydration in the Island County Jail April 8. A detective’s long-awaited investigation into the tragedy was released this week.
Jail under scrutiny following mentally ill inmate’s death
Father’s Day protest to send message to jail, sheriff’s office By JESSIE STENSLAND Co-Editor
“Catastrophic systemic failures” at the Island County Jail led to a 25-year-old man’s death from dehydration April 8, Island County Sheriff Mark Brown said. An exhaustive investigation by Detective Ed Wallace offers an unblinking look at how negligence and errors by both corrections deputies and jail administration contributed to Keaton Farris’ tragic death. The report was released Thursday. Two corrections deputies who falsified logs were placed on administrative leave and have since resigned. Lt. Pam McCarthy was placed on paid administrative leave
pending a disciplinary review, said the sheriff’s office. Chief De Dennis, the jail administrator, was suspended for 30 days without pay and his continued employment is uncertain, Brown said. FARRIS’ FATHER, Coupeville postman Fred Farris, said he is struggling to understand how this could have happened. He is filled with grief, anger and disbelief. “It’s not OK,” he said. “What happened is unconscionable.” Fred Farris and his family entrusted the jail employees to care for his son. He is agonizing over his decision not to bail out his son; people convinced him that the young man would be safer in jail since he was dealing with a mental-health issue. The family has organized a peaceful protest to be held on Father’s Day — this Sunday — as a way of sending a message to the jail and sheriff’s office. The goal, Fred Farris said, is to ensure that such a needless tragedy never happens again. SEE JAIL DEATH, A13

Island Transit seeks input on Route 411 By JESSIE STENSLAND Staff reporter
As of Aug. 3, the wheels on the 411 bus will no longer go ‘round and ‘round. And Island Transit officials want to know what riders and everyone else thinks about it. Beginning next Monday, staff members are holding a series of community meetings to let people know what’s happening and gather public input on both of the 411 routes. “We just want the feedback,” said interim Director Ken Graska. “We want to know whether people think it’s a valuable service or not.” IT staff members will also discuss possible alternatives, such as van pools and car pools, he said. The 411W is the only bus route that takes people off Whidbey Island. It currently runs from Oak Harbor to March Point near Anacortes. It is scheduled to end service Aug. 2 because state funding dried up. Such a change would be many months away, if it happens at all. The following dates, times and locations are scheduled on Whidbey for Island Transit’s community meetings regarding the upcoming change in the 411W/C service: n Oak Harbor Library, Monday, June 22, 5–6 p.m. n Freeland Library, Thursday, June 25, 5–6 p.m. n Oak Harbor Library, Wednesday, July 15, 6–7 p.m.

Greenbank, WSU talking partnership — again
is highly valuable through the collaborative expansion of economic development activities, technology transfer and creative partnerships.”
By MEGAN HANSEN Co-Editor
Like loganberries in the summer, rumblings about a future partnership between the Port of Coupeville and Washington State University may be coming to fruition. After being directly questioned by a member of the public, port Commissioner Marshall Bronson confirmed last week that he’s had ongoing conversations about the possibility of WSU coming to the port-owned Greenbank Farm. Bronson also said WSU wants to hold a public meeting. Currently, the Greenbank Farm Management Group holds leases at the farm, but a new contract is being reviewed by attorneys and should be approved next month. UNDER THE new contract, the port will take over leases at the start of the new year. The management group will still serve as property managers and work in collaboration with the port as it assumes more responsibilities at the farm. Rumblings about the possibility of the university moving to the farm have been a source of anxiety for tenants, who currently have monthto-month leases. “We’ve been hearing the rumors for almost three years now,” said Judy Feldman, executive director for the Greenbank Farm Management Group. “There are just a lot of questions the port and community needs to address. Any significant shift in tenants has impacts on the remaining tenants.”

The Port of Coupeville, which owns Greenback Farm, must decide on how best to operate the historic farm which has been dogged with financial troubles in recent years. PORT COMMISSIONER Mike Diamanti said he only learned Bronson was having the conversations about a week before the meeting, but he was happy to hear a public meeting was being planned. “I’m very enthusiastic about that,” Diamanti said. “I’ve been lobbying for that for ages. WSU has been very vague about what they want.” Public knowledge of the idea of having WSU at the farm first appeared last fall when the port was seeking requests for proposals for management of the farm. At that time, WSU officials expressed interest in a partnership but said it could not serve as manager of the farm. DAVID DAY, executive

director of the port, confirmed this week that conversations began again in February or March of this year. He also confirmed there is no proposed plan at this time and everything is just an ongoing conversation, but that both parties have expressed interest in seeing if there’s a possibility there. “The port is just looking at options and I believe we’d be stupid not to,” Day said. “Do we have a spot at Greenbank Farm for WSU? We don’t have an answer.”

about bringing additional WSU programs to Whidbey Island. “WSU is interested in reaching out beyond the Everett Campus with the agriculture and Farm to Table Hospitality courses and could be interested in bringing those resources to Whidbey Island,” Price Johnson said. “I felt it important as a local representative on the advisory council to let folks within our county know of this opportunity. I reached out to the Port of Coupeville, the Island County Economic Development Council, Port of South Whidbey and Goosefoot to consider the possibilities of attracting WSU to Whidbey.” PRICE JOHNSON said it’s still unknown if it’s even feasible to have WSU at the farm and that the university is waiting to see if the state Legislature is going to fund new degree programs, including degrees in agriculture. “It would be great if the state Legislature funds these programs,” she said. “I just see wonderful opportunities.” Price Johnson said to discuss specific plans publicly when there are so many working parts still unknown would be premature. “I know that’s created some anxiety for tenants,” she said. “But they are tenants in a public facility and the process will be public. Regardless of the outcome of the Greenbank Farm discussions, having WSU in our backyard is not only great for our residents through providing educational options; it
THE MANAGEMENT GROUP currently leases 10 acres at the farm for its Organic Farm School. Feldman said while she’s not opposed to the idea of WSU coming to the farm, the commissioners need to think about whether or not the farm is equipped to accommodate a larger organization. She said there might be five more acres available for agriculture and additional space for hay and livestock. But she said she’s concerned the farm might not be able to supply the needed water and storage. Day said he could imagine a situation where WSU and the Organic Farm School work in collaboration and he could see how WSU could potentially bring students to the school. He said he sees a lot of possibilities with the university coming to the farm, including increased opportunities in bringing visitors from off island. “It could be amazing,” Day said. THEN THERE’S also the question of where at the farm WSU could go. Price Johnson said everything is still unknown, even if WSU needs office space at the farm. If office space were needed, Diamanti said the only workable space would be the three gallery spaces in Barn C. The only lease holder that isn’t currently monthto-month is the Whidbey Camano Land Trust, which hold a lease on the second floor of Barn C. That lease ends in April 2016, Feldman said. WHILE NO official plan has been presented, Feldman said she is happy a public meeting is being discussed and hopes it will provide needed information to the tenants and Greenbank Farm community. “There’s something very special about the farm being publicly owned and run by a nonprofit,” Feldman said. “We think there’s a synergy here and we hope they recognize that,” Feldman said. “This is a special place and its deserves a little bit of respect and a whole lot of care.”

Shirley’s Kitchen, a food stand next to the Clinton Ferry Terminal, is destroyed by flames Thursday.
Fire destroys food stand at ferry dock By JUSTIN BURNETT South Whidbey Record
Shirley’s Kitchen, a longtime food stand located next to the Clinton Ferry Terminal, was destroyed by an unexplained fire late Thursday. Authorities confirmed the business was empty at the time, and that no one was injured. The business was uninsured, however, and the building and all of its contents were a total loss. “Nothing, it’s all gone,” said owner Shirley Wilson. “30 years… .” Speaking in front of the shell of her business, Wilson struggled to keep from breaking down. It’s a devastating financial loss, she said, as winter is typically slow and she was just readying for the busy summer season. She was expecting this Sunday, Father’s Day, to be her best day of the year and had just purchased $1,200 of supplies — $500 alone in ice cream — this week. Instead, she spent Friday morning loading up the charred remains of her livelihood on a trailer to take to the county dump. Wilson is unsure whether she’ll be able to reopen. “I don’t know, I have no idea,” she said. “There’s no money to do anything at this point.” The blaze began at about 8 p.m. after the place was locked up for the evening. The fire appears to have started in the back of the building and was reported by multiple sources, according to South Whidbey Fire/EMS Deputy Chief Jon Beck. Two engines and 14 firefighters responded. Grease buildup in a roof kitchen vent proved a bit stubborn, but the
whole thing was over in about 15 minutes, he said. A cause was undetermined, due to the extent of the damage inside, but its origin was confirmed in the back of the building near a piece of kitchen machinery. Beck estimated damages at $75,000 for the contents and $45,000 for the building. Along with the extra food supplies, Wilson had a brand new computer inside that was destroyed and had just topped off her propane tanks. A favorite of ferry commuters and a fixture in Clinton for about three decades, Shirley’s Kitchen was a recognizable business and its destruction is a stinging loss for both Clinton and greater South Whidbey area, said Bob Craven, president of the Clinton Chamber. “She’s been part of the
community a long time, certainly a missed business on the South End if she doesn’t reopen,” he said. The business was known for being a place for teenagers to get their first job. Even some of the firefighters who worked to extinguish the blaze were counted among them. “Me and my sister both worked there,” said Heidi Beck, Jon Beck’s wife. Wilson said it was fun providing that experience for young people, while making a living too. “It was a fun place to work,” she said. Anyone who wants to help out with financial donations can do so at Whidbey Island Bank.
Lance Gibbon may be the head of the Oak Harbor School District, but he still gets a report card. This year, he could hang it on the fridge. The school board gave the superintendent a glowing evaluation, calling his performance excellent. He received “distinguished” — the highest rating — in several categories, including working closely with families and others in the community. “We are extremely pleased with the job he’s done so far,” said school board President Peter Hunt. The school board also proposed giving the superintendent a 5.7 percent raise for the next school year. If it’s approved during the next board meeting, Gibbon would earn $155,177. He also would receive an annual annuity of $11,324 and $250-a-month travel allowance.
The superintendent didn’t receive a pay raise last year because it was too early to make judgments about his performance, Hunt said. “We were reluctant last year,” he said. “We didn’t have measurable results.” Since Gibbon took the superintendent job in 2013, standardized test scores and graduation rates, a key focus of the district, are up. The number of students who graduated from Oak Harbor High School in four years rose from around 76 percent in 2012 to just under 85 percent last year. The state average in 2013, the most recent year available, is 76 percent. Last year, the district added iGrad Academy, a program that allows students who dropped out to complete their degrees by taking online classes. When students who need extra time are added into the mix, the high school’s graduation rate sits at 87 percent. The board praised Gibbon for going to “great lengths to
ensure that communications with parents and the community are as seamless as possible” and advocating at the state and federal level for policy changes and money for capital needs. “Dr. Gibbon possesses both a long-term vision of where he sees Oak Harbor schools in the future and the ability to devise practical steps toward achieving this goal,” according to the evaluation. “He works tirelessly in all facets of the superintendent job and never allows an opportunity to improve student learning to slip by.” Gibbon was hired in 2013 after serving six years as Oak Harbor’s assistant superintendent. That same year, voters approved a $7.35 million levy that pays for teachers and support staff, technology upgrades, textbooks and more. Gibbon’s wise spending of that levy money is partly why the district is doing well, Hunt said.

Siblings cross continents to reunite in Coupeville after 64 years apart
By RON NEWBERRY Staff reporter
Inside a home overlooking Puget Sound above a bluff not far from West Beach Road, the lights have glowed late on recent nights. No oil lamps were needed to be lit like the days when they were children growing up in London, England. Instead, modern conveniences were able to illuminate the home and warm up tea for long nights of storytelling. “They’ve been staying up late at night, telling us stories,” said Judith Moses. “We’ve just been in stitches.” For the first time in 64
years, give or take a year, depending on who’s recollecting, four siblings enjoyed a much anticipated reunion in Coupeville this week. Three of them came from different continents, converging on the Coupeville home of their sister Lyn Moses, all together for the first time since they were teenagers in their hometown of London more than half century ago. Jim Honan, the eldest sibling at 82, came with his wife from their home in London, Ontario. Edward Honan flew in from Bundaberg, a city in Queensland, Australia.
Yvonne Lundon, the baby of the bunch, traveled from her home in Waterford, Ireland. “There’s been more laughter here than I reckon in a long time,” said Edward in his Australian accent. Jim Honan and Lundon initiated the plan to get the brothers and sisters all together again, Lyn Moses said. They have all visited each other over the years, just not together at the same time. “She was afraid we were getting older and wouldn’t meet again,” Lyn Moses said of her sister. The long separation meant

Four siblings — Yvonne Lundon, left, Edward Honan, Lyn Moses and Jim Honan — pose for a photo at a party in Oak Harbor celebrating the first time they’ve all been together in 64 years. a lot of catching up in so little time with the visit lasting less than a week for some. Edward Honan has recorded many conversations so the stories can be shared with later generations. “They probably won’t be able to hear it because there’s so much giggling and laughter,” Yvonne said. The stories are profound. As children, they lived in bomb-riddled London during World War II and could recall the relentless sound of air raid sirens and buzz of V-1 flying bombs known as buzz bombs and doodlebugs that Germany rained down on Great Britain. They remembered carrying gas masks everywhere, getting in lines for food rations, attending school in makeshift underground structures with water on the floor and watching people saw legs off chairs for fire-
wood. When they rose each day, it wasn’t a surprise to learn that a friend’s home had been reduced to rubble overnight, Lundon said. “People don’t know how lucky they are today,” said Jim Honan, a retired police officer. The worst part was the separation. As bombings intensified, the Honan children joined more than 1 million British children who were evacuated out of the city to areas of lesser risk. Lyn Moses, who was 9 at the time, remembers the unnerving feeling of boarding a train and seeing children wearing tags attached to their coats that had their names and towns they were coming from. They arrived in Holyhead, North Whales and were taken by bus to a town hall building and told to sit on
camp beds until they learned where they would be staying. “We hung on to each other,” Moses said. “People came down like it was a cattle sale.” Boys were picked first because they were strong and sturdy, she said, and her brothers went their separate ways while she and her sister were able to stay together in the same North Whales home. Jim Honan worked in a fish and chips shop, while Edward toiled in a bakery. The four rarely saw each other except when they were in school. Jim, however, didn’t attend school because of work. “He snuck down to see us,” Yvonne said. It would be about a year until it was safe enough for the siblings to return home SEE REUNITE, A11

U.S. and coalition combat effectiveness while creating unacceptable risks for the aviators and crew members.” Hewlett said that the presence of the Growler, an electronic attack aircraft, in recent operations against ISIS are so critical that missions are frequently aborted if the there is not aircraft or pilot availability. The Navy also stated in court documents that it is not in violation with the National Environmental Protection Act, as COER alleges, and that the original Environmental Assessment they conducted in 2005 was in keeping with both Department of Defense and Federal Aviation Administration regulations. In addition to making a case for continued use of OLF for touch-and-go training, the Navy said that it believes the scientific data presented by COER is “flawed” and doesn’t reveal any information that wasn’t already presented by the Navy. COER’s claim that the Growler’s predecessor, the EA-6B Prowler, is quieter is unsubstantiated, according to the declaration of Joseph Czech, senior
WWW.WHIDBEYNEWSTIMES.COM
lead engineer with Wyle Laboratories, which conducts Navy noise studies. “The sound level of the EA-18G has an increased low-frequency content, which accounts for complaints of greater vibrations from the EA-18G as compared to the EA-6B, but the overall single-event sound level of the EA-18G is lower in most flight profiles,” Czech said. The Navy is ignoring the harm jet noise causes residents and is seeking to have their motion denied “primarily on the basis of technical procedural issues,” COER said in a news release this week. “The Navy’s response should serve as a warning to other communities being targeted for ‘warfare training’ across the country,” said COER member Ken Pickard in the news release. “The Navy is willing to harm the very people and environment it is sworn to protect — and do so in the name of ‘national security.’” COER says the scientific data presented by Navy should not be considered because is not based on “real” sound, according to COER spokeperson Cate Andrews. The Navy does not record actual noise levels specific to each noise study, but uses the Department of Defense’s
Page A5
NOISEMAP modeling software that draws on a database of aircraft sound and then factors in criteria specific to the area. These criteria can include runway coordinates, weather data, previous flight tracks, altitude and aircraft specs. A day-night average sound is reached to determine the affect over a 24-hour period, according to court documents. This day-night average has little relevance to a nearby resident who is experiencing more than 100 decibels several times per hour during touchand-gos, said Cate Andrews, COER spokesperson. “We’re talking about real sound,” Andrews said. “It’s a critical difference. The modeling has no relevance.” The Navy maintains that noise modeling provides better data than simply recording the sound. “Noise modeling, rather than noise measurements taken with monitors, is used to assess noise exposure, because this is the most accurate and comprehensive method of estimating airfield noise exposure,” said Ted Brown, U.S. Fleet Forces Command spokesman. The Navy started an expanded Environmental Impact Statement on the Growlers in 2013 and expects it to be complete in 2017.

Modified burn ban in effect for county A modified burn ban takes effect 8 a.m., Tuesday, June 23, according to the Island County Sheriff’s Office. The notice cites atmospheric conditions of reduced moisture levels, low humidity and warm weather which may heighten the risk of fire within the county. No outdoor burning of natural debris will be allowed, even with a permit. Recreational and cooking
fires will be allowed only in approved fire pits lined with concrete or metal, such as those located at established campgrounds. Outdoor cooking will also be allowed on a propane barbecue, a barbecue with briquettes or a self-contained camp stove. The ban will remain in effect until further notice. Report violations by calling 911.

IN OUR OPINION Jail reforms are past due, but necessary in wake of cruel fatality Keaton Farris should not have died. At age 25, he should be hanging out with his friends on Lopez Island or in Coupeville. He should be teasing his sisters or traveling the world. Keaton and his family deserve answers — and justice. Those who are responsible for the young man’s death must be held accountable, whether that means losing their jobs or facing criminal prosecution. And all of us must care enough about this tragedy to demand that problems inside the Island County Jail that led to his horrifying death are corrected. If Keaton were your son, brother or friend, wouldn’t you expect that? Island County Sheriff’s Office Detective Ed Wallace’s noholds-barred report on the series of unfathomable errors that led to Keaton Farris’ death are damning. Farris died from dehydration and malnutrition under the watch of jailers, government employees entrusted by the community to watch over people who are essentially powerless. Keaton’s death indicates that members of a sheriff’s administration who either turned blind eyes or were so uninvolved in their jobs that such negligence could go unnoticed to the point of becoming fatal. It points to a system that is severely broken. Island County Sheriff Mark Brown claimed ultimately responsibility for the errors that occurred in the jail, as he should. Brown broke the news of Keaton Farris’ death to his father, Fred Farris, and he promised that the case will be investigated as if it were his own son had died. The sheriff says he’s on a mission to rectify the problems at the jail. Is it too little, too late? That’s a question that remains to be answered. Whether Brown is the right person to lead this mission to fix the jail will be determined in the coming days, but so far he’s taken all the right steps. Brown said he’s committed to being as transparent as possible about what happened and what changes he’ll make going forward. He must hold to that promise regardless of the outcome. Brown and Undersheriff Kelly Mauck made immediate changes at the jail that Brown said will ensure inmate safety in the wake of the tragedy. He said he plans to bring an expert in jail administration to do a comprehensive review of the facility. Two corrections deputies who falsified logs were placed on administrative leave the day after Farris’ death; they have since resigned. Brown also placed the lieutenant overseeing the jail on administrative leave while a disciplinary process moves forward. Jail Chief De Dennis was suspended for a month without pay, but Brown said he plans to bring him back to work with the jail expert. Dennis’ employment will depend on what the SEE FARRIS, A7

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Treatment plant
Wastewater complex will be ‘massive’ Editor, On Wednesday of this week most of the Oak Harbor City Council toured the location of the new wastewater treatment plant at the edge of Windjammer Park. As members of the public, we were allowed to follow along. What are they thinking? The decision to build this extremely large complex of buildings right in the center of town is absurd. It will dwarf everything in the entire Pioneer Way area. We are told “the decision is made.” It is a wrong decision, but for some reason the city council members are more concerned now about saving face than they are about the longterm fate of our city. What are they thinking? By the time the public sees how huge this complex of buildings actually are, it will be too late, too late to save the uniqueness of Windjammer Park. Make no mistake, this enormous group of buildings, some 35 feet tall,
will be within 150 feet of the windmill. Too late to have an area of downtown with commercial tax revenue producing business, because astute business people will see, along with all the rest of us, a massive sewer treatment plant between Pioneer Way and our beautiful salt water harbor. What are they thinking? Susan Myers Oak Harbor

Many of the employees are on the job by 3:30 a.m. in the dark of the night when the rest of us are sleeping. Those who live on a fixed income appreciate the fact that this is a farefree service, one of the only such operations in the state of Washington. There are a few people who will complain about anything. If you have any complaints about this service, you may need to see your doctor, and paratransit will get you there on time and back home to boot. June Farrington Langley

MORE LETTERS TO THE EDITOR CONTINUED FROM A6
The dog killed was very old and actually had an assisted walking device. Blood was all over the walkway and driveway. I came home to witness four cop cars in front of the neighbor’s house and one officer washing the blood off my fiancee’s hands and arms from her trying to get the dog off the poor victim. The owner of the pit bull decided not to venture to the house to offer any form of help, yet decided to send her boyfriend, who sat on the front of the cop car quietly. This has not been this dog’s first attack, and it has repeatedly gotten out and terrorized the neighborhood. Just last week, the dog attacked two gals walking their bulldog. Luckily, they were able to get away without any major injury to them or their dog. The police were called during that incident but nothing was done about it. Due to animal control and the police department’s lack of commitment to the community, this animal was allowed to destroy a family’s life. We have many children that play in the street and even walk their dogs. God forbid if one of these children was ever killed by this dog. In fact, someone from the pit bull owner’s family put a plea on Craigslist for someone to save their dog. Do we want this dog going to another community and destroying other lives, or does this family deserve some form of justice or at least an apology from the attacker’s family? Keven Lincks Clinton
Guns
Self defense should be socially acceptable Editor, When will enough be enough? We are all horrified when we hear news such as the Charleston, S.C., church massacre. Less than 24 hours after the shooting, President Obama says, “We do know that once again, innocent people were killed in part because someone who wanted to inflict harm had no trouble getting their hands on a gun.” “At some point, we as a country will have to reckon with the fact that this kind of mass violence does not happen in other advanced countries. It doesn’t happen in other places with this kind of frequency. It is in our power to do something about it.” n In April, Dylan Roof purchased the handgun from a licensed dealer after passing the required background check. n Roof carried the loaded gun in violation of a South Carolina state law, which requires a permit to carry a loaded gun in public. n Roof possessed the loaded gun in a church, which is in violation of a separate South Carolina state law which
FARRIS CONTINUED FROM A6 expert has to say. Of course, there are
makes it illegal to do so (even with a permit) without the specific permission from the church leadership. n Roof possessed the loaded gun within 1,000 feet of the school, across the street from the church, which violates the Federal Gun Free School Zone Act. n Roof had the time to reload the handgun five times during the shooting. Again, I must ask, when will enough be enough? The background check didn’t work. Laws against possessing the firearm didn’t work. Laws such as those have never worked and never will. What is particularly disturbing is that Roof had the time to reload the firearm five times during the shooting? One simple fact — it was next to impossible for any of his victims to be able to legally possess and carry a loaded firearm of their own to defend themselves. And that is what the vast majority of mass shootings have in common, not only the unwillingness of the victims to take measures to protect themselves, but more often than not it is also illegal for them to be able to do so. Don’t get me wrong, the responsibility for this horrible crime falls on one person and one person only -—Dylan Roof. But when will enough be enough and we stop trying to make it more difficult and more socially unacceptable for good people to be able to defend themselves?
petroleum. Oil, especially, embodies wealth. It has the amazing combination of energy density and portability. But oil is attracting war like a magnet. We fight over it, and oil-producing countries exchange their oil for weapons and more war. If this isn’t a poster child for the kind of misuse of wealth that the Pope is talking about, I don’t know what is. For the combined reasons of misuse of natural wealth and blatant waste of a highly polluting resource, we need to take seriously the Pope’s call. Halfway measures will not work. “Put simply, it is a matter of redefining our notion of progress,” he wrote. What can guide us to real progress? “Everything is related,” said the Pope, “and we human beings are united as brothers and sisters on a wonderful pilgrimage, woven together for the love God has for each of his creatures and which also unites us in fond affection for brother sun, sister moon, brother river and mother earth.” Chief Seattle said pretty much the same thing. The science of ecology is all about this. What will we hear this time? How will we use our wealth? And particularly, will we step up creation care by investing more in alternatives to fossil fuel?
Climate change
Local support making difference for kids
John Havercroft Stanwood
How do we care for our ‘common home’ Editor, Pope Francis’ encyclical on climate change is a significant document. It not only expands the range of interested parties discussing climate change — it clearly turns the discussion on its head. Instead of a poverty of resources, like “not enough oil,” our real problem, according to the Pope, is our abuse of wealth. The problem is one of consumption, waste, pollution and inequality. The problem is all the worse for its social disparity — the large disparity between those who qualify to do the consuming and wasting and those who don’t. So, as the Pope steps from the pulpit into the real world, the question becomes, “How do we care for our ‘common home,’ God’s creation?” The pope is particularly tough on fossil fuel. The fossil fuel industry is naturally kicking about the Pope, saying that it is a problematic, fossil fuelbased industrial model. Industry says it’s plenty “ethical” — oil removes us from poverty. Seemingly, the industry sees no downside for its product. I look forward to reading all 191 pages of the encyclical to see if Pope Francis writes about world conflict around
much larger issues at play. It’s no secret that the state hasn’t funded the mental health system adequately for decades. It’s well documented that jails simply aren’t the right place to house people

Program
Editor, On behalf of the Community Foundation for Coupeville Public Schools, I would like to express our enormous gratitude to the Coupeville businesses that were so generous this past year as participants in the Dine Out/Shop Out 4 Kids Program. These business donated portions of their proceeds on a chosen day to support CFCPS: Ciao!, The Honey Bear, Aqua, Front Street Grill, Christopher’s and Kapaw’s Ise Kreme. Thanks also to the Knead and Feed for hosting the May 1 dinner event. Their sustaining participation helped the foundation award two, $1,000 scholarships to graduating seniors, as well as over $10,000 in mini grants to support a variety of enriching educational experiences like Career Day, Science Olympiad, Young Authors and fieldtrips to the Seattle Science Center, Washington State History Museum and Cornet Bay Environmental Center, just to name a few. As they say, “It takes a village …,” and our “village” is very grateful for your support. This summer, when you shop or dine at these businesses, be sure to say “Thank you!” We couldn’t do what we do for kids without them. Mendy McLean-Stone, board member Community Foundation for Coupeville Public Schools

sweeping reforms at the Island County Jail is here and now, and the public must demand complete transparency in the process.

Riley
Hazel Marie Riley
Hazel Marie Riley, age 91, died on June 15 in Oak Harbor. She was at home surrounded by her family at the time of her passing. Hazel was born on May 12, 1924, in Chicago to Cuyler and Dagmar Wenberg. Hazel was a woman of faith, family, friendships and countless adventures. Her faith came alive in her teen years. She graduated from Glenbard High School in Ill. and then worked as an administrative assistant at nearby Wheaton College. There, she was part of singing groups that supported the college “preacher boys,” including Billy Graham. Ernest Frost, an Army Air Force pilot on leave from his WWII duties, met Hazel at the college and a match was made. They were married on her birthday in 1945. After the war, Ernie was twice recalled to the Air Force to
fly: first for the Berlin Airlift and then for the Korean conflict. This turned into a 20-year flying career for Ernie and to a growing family for Hazel to watch over in the many moves of a military family. Ernest William II – Bill – arrived first, then came Ronald, David and Susan. In these years, Hazel earned a pilot’s license – a “just in case” measure as she flew at times with Ernie and children on light aircraft. She served others as well, including support care for Christian workers in Japan and teaching conversational English to Japanese teens. In Hawaii, she and Ernie helped with a church plant – the Windward Baptist Church – and offered ongoing hospitality to guests and friends. After Hawaii came Air Force moves to Utah, South Dakota and Montana. In each setting Ernie, Hazel and the family were active in local churches, and new friendships grew around Hazel’s warm hospitality. When Ernie took up a new career in Spokane, Hazel also became a teacher as the children moved into adult life. She first earned a bachelor’s degree in English at Whitworth College with a secondary teaching certificate in 1970. One year later, she earned an M.Ed. in counseling and guidance at Whitworth. She then earned her continuing level counselor certification at Gonzaga University in 1975. With her education in place, Hazel served in Spokane as a teacher at Rogers High School. Then, she developed and directed the SCOPE program for underachieving students at North Central High School. She later became an administrator and counselor at Shaw Junior High School. This was followed by Hazel launching a small counseling practice. On the side, Hazel enjoyed water skiing, snow skiing, golfing, knitting, painting, cooking, reading, writing and hosting the many meals and gatherings stirred by her teenage children. In 1982, Ernie and Hazel both retired from their professional careers and moved to Oak Harbor. They had discovered Whidbey Island years earlier during a summer camping trip and wanted that to be their retirement home. Hazel was widowed with Ernie’s sudden death in 1987. That family tragedy was followed before long by a family delight. Daughter Susan introduced Hazel to a member of the Oak Harbor Presbyterian Church she was attending. That member, Russell R. Riley, had lost his wife within a month of Ernie’s death. The result was a wonderful match. They were married on September 17, 1988. Russ had two adult children, David and Brian, from his first marriage. David is his surviving son. Brian, who
died in 2002, was married to Sue Aschinger. Their son is also named Russell. The Riley bond – a Swede and an Irishman – made for lots of lively conversations and laughs. They loved fishing, golfing and traveling together. She was competitive well into her eighties. Summers spent at Priest Lake, Idaho – shared with some close friends – were a special treat for both of them. Travels to Germany, England, Sweden and Mexico were highlights too. A Christmas dinner for the extended family is a special memory Hazel and Russ shared with the clan. In 2010, a set of strokes slowed Hazel down physically but her presence continued to be clear and strong. Special delight came with visiting grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Hazel’s smiles were never broader than when the small ones came to visit. Hazel was loved and will be missed by all who knew her. A memorial service will be held at 2 p.m., Saturday, June 27, at the San de Fuca Chapel in Coupeville, with a reception following. Funeral arrangements are entrusted to Wallin Funeral Home.

Virginia Clara ‘Ginny’ Dolvin
Virginia Clara ”Ginny” Dolvin died June 3 at Fairhaven Adult Family Home in Oak Harbor at the age of 95. She was born July 25, 1919, in Philadelphia, Penn., to Richard and Elsie Quimby. Following high school, Virginia obtained her registered nursing degree at Abington Hospital, near Philadelphia. In March of 1942, Virginia enlisted in the U.S. Navy and began a long history of ser-
vice to military families. Virginia and the other nurses received no rank and no civilian clothing. She traveled with the first SPARS (women in the U.S Coast Guard) and other women in the military from New York to San Diego on a troop train. Her military service took her to Brooklyn, Australia, New Guinea, Treasure Island, Philadelphia, Bermuda and Oakland, transferring every 18 months. While in service, Virginia met Sheridan (Lee) Dolvin. The Navy did not allow married females, so Virginia left active duty on the morning of December 22, 1949, with the rank of Lieutenant Commander, and that same afternoon, she and Lee were married in Oakland. Lee remained on active duty. The Navy sent the Dolvin family to Oak Harbor in 1966 and Whidbey became home. Virginia returned to work, serving as a visiting nurse for Navy Relief. Her position was to serve military families, both active duty and retired, meeting their health care needs at home, assisting new moms in caring for their babies and serving as the first hospice nurse for retirees as they neared the end of life. Ginny also served as a volunteer instructor for the American Red Cross, teaching first aid and CPR courses. She was also a part of the faculty for Skagit Valley College, teaching the Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) course. Virginia retired from Navy Relief staff but continued to be a volunteer. She logged over 10,000 hours of volunteer service. In addition to her home visits, she was an avid knitter, making hundreds of layettes for new moms. She also enjoyed needlepoint. For several years, she worked for Dorothy Gaethel at the yarn and knitting shop on Pioneer Way. Virginia was a longtime member and past manager of the Duplicate Bridge Club. Virginia is survived by one daughter, Susan Dolvin of Oak Harbor; by two grandchildren, Jeff Crandall and Jessica Crandall; and greatgrandchildren, Cattabrie, Gabriel and Matei. She was preceded in death by her husband, Lee, and son-in-law, Alan Harris. Virginia requested no formal funeral services be conducted. Cremation was held. Burial at sea will follow, with full military honors under the auspices of the U.S. Navy.

The Greenbank property of Frances and Kelly Sweeney features an orchard that consists of about 300 nut trees from hazelnuts to walnuts to others. The couple has partnered with the Whidbey Camano Land Trust to place a conservation easement on the land.
Young hazelnuts are starting to show in the Sweeneys’ front yard from trees they played decades ago. Frances Sweeney led the effort to build the couple’s home after they bought the 10 acres and cleared about four of them to make room for the house and orchards. through the Sweeneys’ wide variety of berries they grow in their spacious organic garden -- surrounded by a tall fence to keep out deer -- and nearly two-dozen egg laying hens that roam the land. “We’ve never used pesticides once,” Kelly said. “We both grew up in the city,” Frances said. “This place has taught us to work with nature and in nature.” Located off Baaken Road, the Sweeneys are a short drive away from the State Route 525 yet are in their own world on their secluded, peaceful property. Kelly is a licensed ship captain on commercial vessels, magazine contributor and
author of the book, “From The Bridge,” capturing his experiences on the sea. For the past eight years, the couple has run a business out of their home called Maritime Headhunters, which helps other sea captains from around the world find crew on short notice. The business keeps Kelly home rather than away at sea. And home is where he wants to be. Out of their love for their property and the island, and knowledge of past lessons, the Sweeneys approached the Whidbey Camano Land Trust in an effort to keep their land the way it is, even after they’re gone.
“For them, it’s really about leaving a legacy,” said Janelle Castro, communications and outreach manager with the land trust. “They truly love their land. For them to know that it’s going to stay the way it is after they’re gone is very important and comforting to them.” The Sweeneys also hoped they might serve as an example to encourage other small landowners to do the same to keep Whidbey wild and beautiful. “We’re just two average people wanting to do this,” Kelly said. In the time they’ve lived on Whidbey, they point to the development along Mukilteo
Speedway across the water from Clinton as a place they’ve seen transformed in a major way in a relatively short period of time. “It’s not like this could never happen here,” Frances said. “It can happen. “We know what can happen to beautiful places.” Under the legal agreement, customized with restrictions by the Sweeneys, the land must remain its single-family residence state on 10 acres with no further development in perpetuity regardless who owns the property in the future. “In perpetuity,” Frances said, breaking into a laugh. “I love that word.”

He won’t discuss it with you.” Understanding that sort of separation and love for each other made this week’s reunion all the more special. Jim Honan said he believes the last time the four of them were together was at about the time he went into the British Army at age 18. His brother soon followed and eventually they all started going their separate ways to different points across the globe. To celebrate their reunion, the siblings held a party attended by about 30 family members and friends at the Can-Do-Inn at the Rocky Point Recreation Area in Oak Harbor Thursday. It also served as a surprise birthday party for Yvonne. “If I would’ve known, I would have done my hair,” Yvonne said. “They’re ter-

JAIL DEATH CONTINUED FROM A1 He asked that people gather at the Community Green near the library at 10 a.m. Then, everyone will march through town. He said people should wear a black T-shirt. The organizers will be handing out water bottles and selling T-shirts dedicated to Keaton Farris. ISLAND COUNTY Coroner Robert Bishop reported that Farris died from dehydration, but malnutrition was a contributing factor. Farris was suffering from mental health issues and had been both combative and non-responsive with jail staff in three different counties, Wallace’s report indicates. Wallace’s 51-page report outlines a complicated series of missteps. The water to Farris’ cell in the Island County Jail was turned off for days because he put a pillow in the toilet at one point and later flooded his cell. He was given water during his meals but it was only a fraction of what was necessary to survive. The staff did not check on him as often as protocol dictated. The logs didn’t include necessary information and observations. Medical staff wasn’t called to examine Farris until the day before he died and the nurse didn’t relate any concerns to jail staff. “Once the nurse was notified she failed to do a proper evaluation of his condition even after Farris advised her that he was not doing well,” Wallace wrote. The detective figured out that Corrections Deputies Mark Moffitt and David Lind had falsified their logs by comparing the entries to surveillance video. At this point, it’s unclear whether anyone may face criminal charges. Brown said Wallace’s report has been sent to the Island County Prosecutor’s Office. Prosecutor Greg Banks said he will review it carefully. THE SHERIFF said he doesn’t excuse himself from blame. He said he failed in his supervisory role over the jail. Brown said he immediately implemented changes at the 58-bed jail to ensure inmate safety and is planning on bringing in an expert in jail administration to do a comprehensive analysis of the facility, especially those confined to “safety cells.” “I want to know why the problems were so glaring and why I didn’t see them,” he said. Brown breaks into tears when he talks about the death of the young man who once played high school football and was a track star in Coupeville, the town where the sheriff’s office resides. The sheriff said he brought Farris’ father into his office soon after the tragedy and had one of the most difficult conversations of his life. “I promised him I would investigate this as if he were my own son,” he said, struggling with his emotions. Brown said his mission is to find the truth, disseminate it to the public, repair the problems and — hopefully — regain the public trust while offering closure to Farris’ fam-
ily. He said he doesn’t know if the family will sue and such an eventuality isn’t guiding his actions. Brown conceded that larger issues are at play in the death, particularly how jails are ill equipped to deal with people with mental health issues. At this point, however, Brown said he’s focusing on the problems at his jail and what he can do to fix them. Sgt. Chris Garden, a veteran member of the department with training in emergency medicine, has taken over as interim jail administrator. He will be working closely with Undersheriff Kelly Mauck. MISSING FROM Wallace’s report, Fred Farris said, is the family’s interaction with the jail. He said he and other family members went to the jail just about every day to see Keaton Farris, but were turned away. The reasons cited were unclear, conflicting and sometimes simply false, he said. He said family members would have noticed something was wrong and gotten him help; he said his son lost more than 20 pounds during his short time in jail. “It wouldn’t have happened if we were able to see him,” he said. “That’s the whole thing.” BROWN SAID that the jail policy doesn’t allow visitations when an inmate is in crisis or at risk. He said such individuals can’t be moved to visitation rooms and visitors aren’t supposed to be brought to cells. In fact, he said, McCarthy violated the policy when she allowed Keaton Farris’ aunt to visit his cell early in his incarceration. Brown said he’s interested in looking at policies at other facilities. He said it might make sense to allow visitors to visit certain inmates at their cells, especially if it would calm them. Fred Farris said his son had a happy, normal childhood growing up on both Lopez Island and Central Whidbey. He was a goofy kid who adored his sisters. “He was someone who wanted everyone to like him,” his father said. “He went out of his way to be fun, silly.” Keaton Farris was diagnosed with bipolar disorder two years ago after experiencing a sudden onset of symptoms, his dad said. It was difficult to deal with, Fred Farris said, but he was convinced his son would figure it out and live a happy life. He noted that Keaton Farris had never been in a jail before this incident and had no criminal record. RECORDS FROM San Juan County Superior Court show that prosecutors charged Farris, a Lopez Island resident, with second-degree identity theft on March 2 after a man reported that a check was stolen, forged and cashed at a bank. A $10,000 warrant was issued for Farris’ arrest. Lynnwood police picked him up on the warrant March 20. Officers responded to a report of a suspicious man at a bank. Farris told an officer that he was “off his meds”
WWW.WHIDBEYNEWSTIMES.COM
and that he was projecting his thoughts at people inside the bank, Wallace wrote. Records from the Lynnwood jail indicate that he had prescripBROWN: tion Lorazepam when he “I want to arrived. Under know why the problems were a cooperative agreement so glaring and between jails, why I didn’t see he was transthem.” ferred to Snohomish County Jail, where staff members indicated in paperwork that he was “gravely disabled,” was presenting symptoms of psychosis and needed a mental health evaluation before leaving the jail. A “medical slip” of paper indicated that he tested positive for amphetamines, THC and Lorazepam and possibly suffered from bipolar disorder, Wallace wrote. FARRIS WAS transferred to Skagit County on March 24. He was originally supposed to be transferred the day before, but he apparently resisted and was tasered in Snohomish County. In Skagit County, he was noncommunicative and resisted jailers; he was placed is restraints. A Skagit official warned the Island County jail lieutenant that two corrections deputies would be needed to transport Farris because of his unpredictable behavior. That message wasn’t passed down, and a lone Island County corrections deputy arrived, but wasn’t able to transport Farris. The San Juan Sheriff’s Office finally transported Farris to Island County on March 26. The Island County Jail holds inmates from San Juan County under an interagency contract. Farris arrived at Island County Jail without his medication or any of the medical and mental-health information that the other jails collected. Brown said he doesn’t yet know what happened, but he hopes to work with the other agencies in the future to ensure such information is shared. On March 27, Farris grabbed a corrections deputy by the hand and tried to pull him through the “feed slot” when the deputy was trying to give him water, the report stated. Farris was initially placed in a blue-padded safety cell but was moved to a single-person cell March 30. His cell was designated as a “safety cell,” which means heightened monitoring is required. ON MARCH 30, water to Farris’ cell was turned off after he placed his pillow in the toilet and was “playing in the water in his sink,” Wallace wrote. It was turned off again when he flooded his cell on April 4. In his investigation, Wallace estimated that Farris’ consumption of water and other fluids during his time at the jail was about 185 ounces based on the amount of liquid in the Dixie cups the jail uses. Under National Institute of Health guidelines, Farris’ intake

should have been 1,563 ounces. FEMA guidelines state that 791 ounces would be necessary for survival in an emergency situation. “The number could be lower since we cannot confirm that he consumed all the water/fluids provided,” Wallace wrote. “It could be higher as well since there were windows of opportunity where he would have been able to provide himself water.” Farris’ inmate book states that he was supposed to be observed each hour, but the log showed long stretches of time in which nobody checked on him. The last time that a corrections deputy confirmed he was alive was at 5:30 p.m. April 7. A deputy tapped on his door at 8:30 p.m., but Wallace wrote that it was likely he was dead at that time because of the lack of response and based on the estimated time of death determined by the coroner. Corrections deputies discovered Farris was dead at 12:30 a.m. on April 8. IN HIS report, Wallace describes confusion among the jail staff regarding policies and procedures. The jail administration was in the process of instituting the Lexipol manual concerning jail policies. The part of the manual regarding safety cells was implemented, Brown said, but staff didn’t receive training and information wasn’t adequately disseminated or explained. Wallace details a series of instances in which the corrections deputies failed to follow the “safety cell procedures.” Wallace wrote that Farris wasn’t offered fluids hourly, as required. A safety cell log wasn’t started immediately and was incomplete. Supervisors didn’t inspect the logs as required. The safety checks were not sufficient to assess the inmate’s well-being. The policy requires that his medical and mental-health status be assessed within 12 hours, but he wasn’t evaluated until his 11th day in custody. WALLACE ALSO described confusion among jail staff about McCarthy’s alleged directive that the door to Farris’ cell should not be opened because of his combative history. During his time in the cell, a corrections deputy observed Farris lying on his bunk with a piece of cloth in his mouth. He was concerned about the possibility of him choking and alerted McCarthy, who told him to leave Farris alone because of the possibility that he would assault a deputy. The Sheriff’s Office contracts with Island County Public Health to provide a nurse at the jail four days a week. The nurse was asked to see Farris on the day before he died. But she only interacted with Farris for two minutes and didn’t have a “hands on encounter,” but instead talked to him through the feeding slot in the door. According to Wallace’s report, Farris told her he needed a medical professional and that he was “not good.” Nevertheless, she didn’t alert the staff to any concerns. THE NURSE who visited Farris told Wallace that she didn’t think she had enough time to properly evaluate him, but apparently didn’t
convey that concern to the staff. She said she did not ask for the cell door to be opened because “she had heard the staff talking about him being violent, disruptive and uncooperative,” Wallace wrote. In addition, a psychologist from Western State Hospital evaluated Farris for competency to stand trial and he also didn’t convey any concerns about the young man’s health to the jail staff. San Juan County Prosecutor Randy Gaylord said Farris was originally supposed to be transferred to Western State for the evaluation, but it was delayed because of the lack of “beds” at the facility, which is a welldocumented problem in the state. As a result, the psychologist tried to examine him at the jail. Wallace’s report indicates that the psychologist attempted to interview Farris through the feeding slot on the closed cell door. Farris was lying naked on the cell floor and talking to himself continually. His report, issued after Farris’ death, found that the young man was not competent to stand trial. FRED FARRIS said there’s plenty of blame to go around. He said officials in San Juan County also have “blood on their hands” because they were ultimately responsible for his son’s well-being while in custody. He questions why neither the nurse nor the psychologist did more to help his son. He wants to know what happened to his son’s medicine and medical history as he was transferred from jail to jail. Mostly, however, Fred Farris said he wants to know what the sheriff is going to do to fix the unbelievably long list of problems at the Island County Jail. ISLAND COUNTY commissioners received Wallace’s report and were briefed by the sheriff and attorney’s from the county’s insurance pool. Commissioner Jill Johnson noted the multiple opportunities to help Farris that were missed from the time of his arrest until his death. A press release from the board also emphasized this point and stated the three commissioners are outraged and heartbroken. “Our best way of honoring Keaton and his family is to do everything possible to see that no other family has to endure what the Farris family is experiencing,” the press release states. The commissioners said they are committed to working with both the Sheriff’s Office and the Health Department to fix the problems. WHILE THE sheriff’s office is an independent department, the county commissioners set the budgets for all the county agencies. Brown has been outspoken about a need for more personnel, both on the road and in the jail; he has received additional funds for more staff members in both places but not as much as he wanted through a proposed law-and-justice levy. Brown stresses, however, that Farris’ death was not caused by a lack of manpower, but rather a “perfect storm” of negligence, failures and shoddy oversight. Part of the solution, however, may be more staff members in the jail, Brown said.

THE LUCKIEST SIGNS THIS WEEK: CAPRICORN, AQUARIUS AND PISCES.
Week of June 21 to 27, 2015 ARIES
You’re concerned about your health and you’d like to get a bit more fit, even if only for the summer months. This would be a good time to start a diet.
TAURUS
You’re given a platform on which to express yourself. You may say something that will be remembered for a long time to come or that will spread around the world, courtesy of the Web.
GEMINI
Big projects are being organized at home as well as between you and your partner. You may decide to live with someone new and start a family, even if it’s a blended one.
CANCER
You’re tempted to express out loud what others are only thinking. However, your wisdom and maturity should help you choose your words diplomatically.
LEO
You have a hard time controlling your spending when you find yourself in a beautiful store. A more spiritual way of life would be a very attractive option.
VIRGO
You may be able to accomplish a brilliant exploit. You may soon meet your soul mate if you’re single, or you start talking about the future with your new partner.
LIBRA
The most important thing right now is your health. You become increasingly aware of its importance and live more for the moment. Rest and relaxation are also on the menu this week.
SCORPIO
Not everyone can manage stress well. Start by accepting who you are and don’t try to swim against the current. You find a great source of inspiration.
SAGITTARIUS
A specific event requires you to call an emergency meeting, at work or elsewhere. Many people are relying on you to get everything done.

If you’re on the point of renewing your mortgage, you’re in a strong position to renegotiate everything. You benefit from a more flexible budget.
PISCES
For one reason or another, you may have some difficulty in coming to a decision. You try to weigh the pros and cons, but it’s your heart that will give you the answer.
